Cloud
Microsoft Graph Files enables programmatic access to OneDrive and SharePoint document libraries for file management, including uploading, downloading, sharing, and permissions control. It streamlines cloud storage integration and automation.
Automated File Upload and Organization
Mindflow integrates with Microsoft Graph Files API to automate file uploads to OneDrive and SharePoint. Incoming files from email, cloud storage, or enterprise applications trigger workflows that categorize, rename, and move them into predefined folders, ensuring structured storage without manual intervention.
Real-Time Document Access Management
Mindflow uses Microsoft Graph’s permissions API to automate access control based on user roles and predefined policies. When employees join or leave a project, workflows dynamically update file and folder permissions, ensuring compliance and reducing administrative effort.
Automated Data Backup and Synchronization
Mindflow schedules and automates file backups by integrating Microsoft Graph Files API with cloud storage or on-premises servers. Workflows monitor document changes, trigger scheduled copies to backup locations, and ensure versioning for data recovery.
File-Based Incident Response
Mindflow integrates Microsoft Graph with security tools to automate threat response—suspicious files detected in OneDrive or SharePoint trigger workflows that isolate, scan, and notify security teams. Automated actions include moving flagged files to quarantine and restricting access.
Product Description
Microsoft Graph Files API enables programmatic access to files stored in OneDrive, OneDrive for Business, and SharePoint document libraries. It allows users to manage files and folders, automate operations, and integrate storage with third-party applications. The API supports file uploads, downloads, metadata retrieval, permissions management, and file synchronization.
Value Proposition
The API provides a unified interface for file management across Microsoft cloud storage solutions. It streamlines workflows by automating document handling, reducing manual effort, and enabling seamless integration with enterprise applications. By leveraging automated file operations, businesses can improve collaboration, enforce security policies, and optimize document lifecycle management.
Primary Users
IT administrators, developers, and security teams use Microsoft Graph Files API to automate file handling, enforce access controls, and integrate storage with enterprise systems. It is beneficial for organizations managing large-scale file operations, compliance policies, and security workflows.
How It Works
Microsoft Graph Files API operates through RESTful endpoints that interact with OneDrive and SharePoint storage. Users authenticate via Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) and perform operations using API calls. The API supports retrieving file metadata, uploading and downloading content, managing permissions, and tracking file changes. It integrates with workflow automation tools like Mindflow to orchestrate file operations with enterprise applications, security systems, and compliance frameworks.
